Victoria's Secret put the 25-year-old model on the cover of its
swimsuit catalogue.

The brand also gave
Swanepoel preferential treatment during its famous fashion
show last month. Swanepoel was the only model to get a feature
segment during the television special. The segment introduced the
audience to Swanepoel and went through her biography.

It's likely that Victoria's Secret is grooming Swanepoel because
the rest of its A-team are all 30 or older.

While that's young by most standards, it's retiring age for a
supermodel, and Miranda Kerr, Adriana Lima and Alessandra
Ambrosio all have limited time on the catwalk.
